Topic: EIB/KNX with Eibd (Read 2988 times)

Hi anyone can you help me about a Eibd configuration...I've installed Eibd like a guide in wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/EIB/KNX_with_eibdEibd work fine with eibd with command /usr/bin/eibd -D -T -R -S -i -u --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log ipt:192.168.0.191like 192.168.0.191 is the KNX/IP gateway.If I send terminal command groupwrite ip:127.0.0.1 0/0/7 1it work fine.Now the question is that I would like use LinuxMCE for control light.I don't know how create a device-->interface in Webadmin panel for work with eibd over IP.In particular:manufacturer?device category?device template?I use linucMCE 8.10.

Well, to get the status of the light correct in the floorplan, you need to have the group address of the status as well. That way the floorplan status of the lights gets updated whenever and however the light gets turned on and off. i.e. if a motion sensor turns on the light, you see it on the floorplan, IF you have a status link. I don't think you receive that information, when you are missing the status.

It is part of the programming of the specific module. Check with ETS if your device has such a property and create a group address for it. The MDT stuff I am using, lighting actors and blind actors, as well as the PIRs do support it.
